Bulldozing opinion

A dispute between neighbours took a rather different turn in Washington State in the US. Frustrated following an argument, one man climbed into his bulldozers and used it to wreck four houses belonging to his neighbours. The incident also damaged power lines and disrupted electricity supplies to thousands of others in the area. Luckily no-one was hurt in the incident and the bulldozer driver was subsequently arrested by police.
